My Dad taught me to set the oiler so you'd fling some off the tip. Back about 2009 I was doing a bit of CSM. My 60CC JD w/28" or 42" would fling fine, my small Stihl would fling fine. My Stihl 660's wouldn't fling worth a darn with bars over 20" and non-Stihl chain no matter how far one turned up the oiler. Seems the EPA had set some rules and Stihl had changed the oilers they distributed in the US versions. Aussie 660's would fling fine up to 42" if you turned the oiler up.
I bought 2 Stihl HO oilers, now my 660's fling off my 42" bar.
I don't want to burn up a $100 bar.
